How do I watch downloaded movies on the macbook?

Hi. I'm a new mac user, and I don't know everything about it yet. I'm wondering how I can watch downloaded movies or tv-shows on my macbook? I usually watch downloaded movies on vlc, but it doesn't work. I just don't get it. Hope someone can help me!

I personally enjoy using DivX for watching movies. It supports a multitude of files.

You can find it here: http://www.divx.com/en/software/mac


Depending on the legitimacy of your downloads, certain sites may require you to install specific programs to run a specific file type that they host. If DivX doesn't work for you, then I would look deeper into the website to see if there's any additional software that may be of use to you there.
